3500/25 Enhanced Keyphasor Module (Bently Nevada)

Product Description The 3500/25 is a half‑height, two‑channel enhanced keyphasor module for the 3500 Machinery Protection System. It supplies precision Keyphasor (speed/phase reference) signals to all monitor modules in the rack, receiving inputs from proximity probes or magnetic pickups on rotating shafts. Critical for turbomachinery TSI (vibration, phase, speed, vector monitoring), it enables accurate 1X amplitude/phase and rotational speed measurements in power, oil & gas, and heavy industry.
